Topic: Mornington Crescent Posted: May 19 2005 at 15:21 |
Anybody fancy a game of Mornington Crescent? Hooper's Mainline Variation rules, and as many of you may be new to the game we'll keep it simple so: no feathering unless you've demonstrated mastery of the three times loop, and any disputes over the Northern Line rule will be adjudicated by myself in consultation with Stovold.
I'll begin with........................................................ ............................................................ ............................................................ ................................Dollis Hill

Surely that's an illegal use of shunting there VG and that would leave only Morden or Becontree available.

Oh yes, sorry I see it now. You are quite right.
That means I can counter with Hangar Lane.

^ Within the rules but a bit ungentlemanly, Sigod. Still, it keeps the game interesting, hmmmm...
I'm tempted to loop the Metropolitan, but I don't want to risk my counters at this stage of the game...
Caledonian Road is my best move here.
